I'll admit I was scared to death leaving on a weeklong trip with my Honda Odyssey pulling our 2720sl, I have read all of the horror stories on here and on the Odyssey forum about Tranny problems, etc. Long story short it did awesome, the mountains slowed us down some but for the most part it did great, just had to watch the rpm's to ensure the torque converter didn't stay locked in, etc. other than that, no searching for gears and the v6 felt really strong. We averaged 18.06 mpg for the trip, I think around 15.5 towing average and this wasn't at all flat it was a ton of up's and downs from Louisville, KY to the mountains for Western NC.
